These deliciously gory sundaes are easy to make, using ice cream or frozen yogurt and berry jelly or puree - all you need are candy eyes or other body parts. Bonus: you'll actually want to eat them afterward!Family Kitchen has the recipe!

These edible Jack-o-lanterns are as fun to make as they are to eat - carve all kinds of faces into the top layer of pastry before baking them. Perfect for Halloween lunchboxes!Family Kitchen has the recipe!

There's no reason to save gingerbread houses for Christmas - it makes a perfect vehicle for ghoulish candies and creepy decorations, and a great centrepiece for a Halloween party!Stock.Xchng">Photo courtesy of Stock.xchng.
